one day switch it up and play John Cena’s wrestling intro
🎺 🎺 🎺 🎺
I can’t help but imagine the son doing tippy taps like my dog does whenever I get back from work 😂
My kids used to go crazy when I would get home from work. Cherished memories.
My family does this!
Every time my son hears the first couple lines of “boats and ho’s” he goes nuts.
No idea why another dude always walks in at the same time as the music’s going, but they’ve assured me he’s just the plumber doing regularly everyday maintenance and the theme song is for me.
I would definitely play the Seinfeld intro theme. Slap bass intensifies
Gotta have the audience cheer when you enter too. I would just have a sitcom soundboard ready for the full effect.
“This is the worst case of intronitis I’ve ever seen. You can even hear the theme music.”
Chariots of fire
In slow motion
I’m gonna try this with The Final Countdown. My spouse is a huge Arrested Development fan.
Ah, one of my favorite numbers to sing to my limited captive audience. ITS THE FINAL CAT MEOWWWW
Full album will be available spring 2026. Requests welcome.
!remindme 1.5 years
Shit, I only have two songs so far. Let me rephrase: requests are necessary
I used to play the Beatles’ “Here Comes the S[o]n” on the speakers downstairs when I brought our first child downstairs after naps. My wife thought it was funny the first time, but after that it was all like “please don’t stop my playlist for your pun” and I’m like “it’s a literal dad joke!”
Now that son is old enough to start his own music and I totally get it. “Hey, I was listening to that!”
Stealing this for a couple of timer
Looking over the responses, I’m surprised no one said they’d play “Never gonna give you up.” by Rick Astley. I say why not rickroll your family whenever you get back home.
I kind of wonder how to do this. All of my"house speakers" can’t be turned on remotely. I’m guessing it’s a smart speaker.
Yeah. Seems cool, but I would prefer to not leave everything that happens in my house potentially exposed through completely unnecessary network traffic.
Perhaps you could do it with Bluetooth, depending on the range of the signal.
Son goes crazy in a good way or bad way?
Like I can imagine a 4 year old going wild with excitement cause the parents are home. Or a 14 year old cringing hard
16 year old rapidly putting their dick away
win win
flings laptop across the room
I mean it’s honestly not a bad idea in general to announce your presence unless you’re specifically trying to surprise people.
I pictured the first, but the cringing teenager is funny too.
I have this set up automatically with our smart speaker thing. Whenever it detects someone arriving at home, it plays a jingle from a playlist I set up for the purpose. They are all short - I think the longest is about 30s. They are intros from TV shows and jingles from videogames.
Please elaborate, what do you use for this?
The “Shortcuts” app for iPhone. Not sure what the Android equivalent is.
This is brilliant, how do you go about doing this?
Ok, I need to copy this.
Somebody…
this is so easily what I’d make mine
I genuinely didn’t recognize what song you were referring to because the “some” was not stretched and “body” was not emphasized 😂
Add a smoke machine and some fireworks and every time you come home it’s like walking into a WWE ring
I can only imagine John Cena music for which my son goes crazy
flicker some smart lights too
Yess I need to find me an app to connect these things. Maybe something like If This Then That? Or maybe the apple automation app (whatever it’s called) can do this.
But without the thinly-veiled gay porn?
Yes, I only allow totally unveiled gay porn in my home.
Fabulous
‘Imperial March’ just before arriving would be awesome
The original, or the metal version?
Start with the original, and when they tire of it, move to this fantastic version!
That took me a minute. I read “house speaker” as Mike Johnson.
I don’t know what he does in his spare time, so maybe?
Gotta have something to do when he’s not monitoring his son’s porn browsing
Ugh I really wish I could unlearn this fact.
